Unnai thotta pookalukkul galatta
Thala keezhathaan viluthae
Ottu motha paal veliyae
Pattasa nee sirikka maaridudhae
Yei sitterumbhu kadicha seeniya pol
Valaiyudhu en iduppae..hoo oo
Mutham vechu asathum meesaiyil koluthum
Azhagan nee enakkae..oiyaara
Unnai thotta pookalukkul galatta
Thala keezhathaan viluthae
Ottu motha paal veliyae
Pattasa nee sirikka maaridudhae
Naan feel panna realuma
En heartula un rule ma
Adiyae konjam keluma
I want be your aalu maa
Vaa nila odi vaa
Aasa pattu thedi vaa
Kaarmugil kondhalil
Poonthalir soodi vaa
Akkara sakkara sokkura
Vekkira nikkura kettadhu yendi
Lookula nikkula sikkuna sikkalu
Suthala ippo en bhoomi
Kanna kuliyila kavuthitta
Enakulla unna vedhachitta
Karu karu vizhi kuru kuruvena
Neru neruppula nenachitta
Raani kannu un mela raja
Jodi appadi oor moikkumae
Izhuthu pogum unnodu majaa

Patta pagal sooriyam unnai paarthu koosumae
Nee kudicha neer ellaam beeru aagumae
Un azhagu thookuna ooril illai yaarumae
En uyir aalumae nee naan roomae
Unnai thotta pookalukkul galatta
Thala keezhathaan viluthae
Ottu motha paal veliyae

Yei sitterumbhu kadicha seeniya pol

The flowers that touched you are creating a ruckus,
they are falling upside down,
and the entire Milky Way...
...turns into firecrackers when you smile.
Hey, like sugar bitten by a tiny ant,
my waist bends and sways... hoo oo
Mesmerizing with kisses, sparking fire with your mustache,
you are my handsome man... so stylish!
The flowers that touched you are creating a ruckus,
they are falling upside down,
and the entire Milky Way...
...turns into firecrackers when you smile.
What I feel is real, girl,
you rule over my heart, girl.
Listen to me a little, girl,
I want to be your man, girl.
Come, my moon, run to me,
desire me and come looking for me.
In your dark, cloud-like hair bun,
wear fresh blossoms and come.
Sweetening me, enchanting me, making me swoon,
stopping and holding me—why have I lost my senses, girl?
Trapped in the tangle of your looks and moves,
my world has stopped spinning now.
You knocked me over into your dimple,
you planted yourself deep inside me.
With your dark eyes glancing playfully,
you drenched me straight in fire.
The queen's eyes are on you, my king,
what a match—the whole town will crowd around us!
The excitement with you sweeps me away,
now it is a tussle between me and the blanket.
Even the bright daytime sun is dazzled looking at you,
even the water you drink turns into beer!
When your beauty takes over, no one in town can match it,
you rule my soul, just you and me in this room.
The flowers that touched you are creating a ruckus,
they are falling upside down,
and the entire Milky Way...
...turns into firecrackers when you smile.
Hey, like sugar bitten by a tiny ant,
my waist bends and sways... hoo oo
Mesmerizing with kisses, sparking fire with your mustache,
you are my handsome man... so stylish!
